Things are Looking Up!

“Things Are Looking Up”

Optimism despite the struggles;
Happiness instead of despair;
Hope for tomorrow while making the most of today;
The way I see it...
Things are Looking Up

I wasn't going to post this one for a couple more weeks, but I couldn't wait. And I see that my good friend Sharon Rotz posted her piece, too. It is a painting for the Center for Visual Arts Just for the Art of It "Art by the Foot" fund raiser to be held on May 14 at the Grand Theater's Great Hall on Arts Block in Wausau. We will be having close to 100 12"x12" pieces of artwork up for silent auction. Part of the fun is that the artist is only allowed to sign the BACK of his or her piece of art so that auction goers do not know whose art they are bidding on. (Shhh--don't tell anyone that you know this piece is the one I painted!) My friend Val Berkely and I are the co-chairs for this event and we are sooooo excited for the responses we have received from artists participating and from art lovers, as well.

Here is a link to the CVA web site for more information: http://www.cvawausau.org/specialEvents.html

Check out Sharon Rotz's piece for the auction. Her work is phenomenal! I won Sharon's piece from last year's auction. All I can say is, "Lucky, Lucky me!"
